Escape VR - The Future Of Escape Rooms
From the world of Assassin’s Creed, travel through the Animus back to the pyramid tombs of Ancient Egypt in Escape The Lost Pyramid, or to the coastal caves of Ancient Greece in Beyond Medusa’s Gate. Alternatively, Travel to the year 3007 AD to prevent the apocalypse with the help of HUXLEY, your friendly robot sidekick. Or, instead bend the laws of physics using the Prince Of Persia’s Dagger Of Time to escape the fortress by slowing, stopping, or even rewinding the passage of time!
